Don't use very much grease. At first when I put it together pushing in the spacers hydrolocked and wanted to push the seals back out. I had to much grease in there. If I did it again I would be very careful and keep the seal surface dry. Use a tooth pick to put grease around the uniball and move it around to work the grease in. I just used CV grease. 

Yeah, but WHAT CV grease?  😝

I wonder how long that bag would last without that outer layer? Pretty thin. I will keep it as a spare for sure. Now I have two spares. lol

So if you have a spare, run it and see how long it will last. Only way to find out. Then you will know if it's worth keeping them as spares.

I will put a new one in. Not worth being deep in the dunes and loosing it. Car gets very unhappy. But I would not hesitate to use as a spare to get through a trip.
